"The Antlers Sylvia clip revolves around a man who keeps seeing, and arguing with, a ghostly ex-lover. Its a literal read of what makes Hospice so compelling, that songwriter Peter Silberman captures what its like to deal with someone you feel responsible for, but who both craves and resents your responsibility toward them. Director Trey Hock says he took some inspiration for his sepia-toned Sylvia video from D.W. Griffiths Broken Blossoms, a better resource than Griffiths Birth Of A Nation" via stereogum.com

This video is what happens when your record label doesn't have the cash to hire a proper director / cinematographer. The whole thing is filtered in fucking sepia tone? Are you KIDDING me? In my opinion, none of the Antlers' videos do their music justice.

Video is nice, but doesn't really pertain to hospice.
-
" Its a literal read of what makes Hospice so compelling..." Actually, it isn't.

I come back to this after viewing other resources. Bear and Two are currently the ONLY songs which have offical videos made for them. This is false. Close your eyes and capture the music. The video will disappoint.
